Its like Colin Cowherd said just today.

In favre's day, people valued gunslingers, big QBs with strong-ass arms.

Tom Brady has redefined the position so that now whats valued is accuracy, efficiency, and getting the ball out in 3 seconds.

It aint that Favre was overrated, its that the position has been redefined so that now it looks like he sucked dick.

But at that time, he was top 5. Along with Elway and Marino and shit.

He wasn’t too 5 when he retired. Favre was a compiler, a 2nd or 3rd tier HOF QB.

But is Favre Fan overrated?

Not in my mind. Most people don't rank him as a top 5 QB of all time. Many of these rankings has him in the 7-12 range which I think is just about right.

I'd still take Marino over anyone.

Agreed, he's a 7th or 8th best as of right now, definitely in the top 10. I've got him ahead of Peyton.

Brady is the best in the playoffs. Favre is 44/30 TD/INT. Elway is 27/21. Playoffs are tough. With Manning, I am saying he is the best pure passer. You could easily argue Brees or Marino.

Rodgers playoff stats are for sure on a TD to INT basis.

You’re nuts.

You only say that because he got a second ring( he did fuckall in that game)

His run 15 years ago when he won his first ring( against Bears) he had more turnovers than touchdown in that post season. He's the only guy ever to win a ring while having more turnovers than TD in a post season n get a ring. He's the most over rated NFL player in history.

Elway always gets way too much love on these lists. He’s nowhere near top 10 all time.

He's my favorite QB all time so I usually have him too high. He's certainly top 10 though. I'd take him over any QB not named Brady in the league right now.

FF the poster, not the QB! And yes Marino was the best in my mind until Manning. I always thought Marino was the best passer, but I have to give that to Manning now. And the best winner is now Brady over Montana.

Completely different passing rules today. Defenders can't even breathe on Rodgers. Did a sack of Elway ever result in a rule change?

Brady is not only the best quarterback of all time, he is the best FOOTBALL PLAYER of all time, and its not even close.

Manning and Favre have a lot of similarities in their careers with both compiling record-breaking stats but often falling short in huge games. Whatever criteria you use, Manning is going to come out ahead between the two. I think Manning is at the bottom of the 1st tier of HOF QBs while Favre is somewhere in the second tier.

This was Rodgers worst year and he was still better than 90% of the Elway seasons. If he was in the NFL in his prime right now Elway would rank right around wherever Cam ranks. Most overrated athlete in pro sports history.
